Note also the list of incompatibilities in the README file.
Changes since 5.0.0
-------------------
Changes from 5.0.7 to 5.0.8
---------------------------
- Global aliases can be created for syntactic tokens such as command
separators (";", "&", "|", "&&", "||"), redirection operators, etc.
Use at your own risk! The POSIX_ALIASES option is interpreted more
strictly to prevent expansion of these and other alias names containing
quotes, glob metacharacters, parameter references, etc.
- There have been various further improvements to builtin handling
with the POSIX_BUILTINS option (off by default) for compatibility with
the POSIX standard.
- 'whence -v' is now more informative, and 'whence -S' shows you
how a full chain of symbolic links resolves to a command.
- The 'p' parameter flag now allows an argument to be specified
as a reference to a variable, e.g. ${(ps.$sep.)foo} to split $foo
on a string given by $sep.
- Elements of the watch variable may now be patterns.
- The logic for retrying history locking has been improved.
- Some rationalisations have been made to the zsh/db/gdbm module that
should make it more useful and predictable in operation.
Changes from 5.0.0 to 5.0.7

- Numeric constants encountered in mathematical expressions (but not other
contexts) can contain underscores as separators that will be ignored on
